Article Synopsis
- Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the top cause of illness and death globally, with both genetic and environmental factors impacting their development, but their interaction remains unclear.
- A study involving 390 healthy Mexican women examined the combined effect of the MTHFR C677T genetic polymorphism and exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) on cardiovascular risk biomarkers.
- Results indicated that higher urinary PAH levels were linked to elevated serum markers of cardiovascular risk, particularly in women with the TT genotype of the MTHFR enzyme, highlighting the need for targeted health interventions.
